A commenter on another site made this wonderfully written post about how Kroger's metric-centered policy negatively affects the employees and the company, wanted to share for how insightful and true it is:

I'm currently a supervisor working 25-30 hours a week. I'm really fed up with supervising. I just want to be a bagger. Should I try to move to a different department, or ask nicely to just be a bagger?

I found out that one of the co-managers left our store to work somewhere else. How long do you think it takes for them to realize "oh crap....how long can i really work here?"

I've been wondering something for awhile. Can anyone start a thread without frontendslave turning it into his own personal rant. Please frontendslave slave, learn to follow instructions from superiors without taking it personally. Everyone should learn to do just three things. Clock in on time...

I wish the managers would just leave the schedule alone and leave it as is. This week and last week, I've had handwritten times written underneath the original time on the schedule. In fact, all of the cashiers have. On the days that I had off, there would be a handwritten time and "OFF" was cr...

Sorry for the long post This is the issue: I am a produce clerk, and our produce manager doesn't do anything. He texts all day, talks on the phone, and hits on every single woman he sees. This is how it always has been with him, ever since he came to the store. Everyone in the store knows how he is, he doesn't...

The thing is that I've been doing that since i was a bagger (i started when i was 18) and none of the other supervisors h...

There is a flyer over by our break room upstairs that says we get 20% off certain purchases from August 29th - September 1st. Anyone else hearing or seeing this? -- Edited by FrontEndSlave on Thursday 28th of August 2014 01:35:31 AM

So one of our moron courtesy clerks or cashiers -- no idea which -- put eggs into our gobacks. Now, as of yesterday evening, we had about 12 or so goback carts. Yep. That's not an exaggeration. Of course, if you work for Kroger and have been reading this forum for awhile, that won't surprise you. Most of t...

I work at a Kroger fuel center and we have had a water leak in the box for 6 months now. The leak has knocked out our air conditioning 6 times. And we are stuck in the box in 96degree heat for the entire shift. Now we have been itching and getting rashes, having memory loss, and headaches. I got my manager to te...

So I'm a courtesy clerk, and most days I just go in and do my job until I can go home you know? But today.... well, I got yelled at by my co-manager. See, I was going to go get the broom and do a sweep right? But like, I guess I must've passed some customers on my way up the aisle without.... gasp.... saying hello...

At my store, all of the cashiers are having their hours cut this week. No cashier is working more than 27 hours. I'm only working 22.5 hours this week. Is this a normal thing or is this something that I should be concerned about?

I'm not sure if this is for every Kroger or just ours, but our krogers got a free private selection pizza loaded on their card.

So last week was my first back from vacation. While I was gone one of our co-managers was replaced by another guy who use to be a store manager. Well the bad thing is this guy has been a manager at two other stores and they both shut down. How can a guy with this reputation, he's been complained on about ha...
